Hi

I am wondering If anyone knows what the offset value is for adf 1 standby?
Adf 1 active is 034C

But what is The offset for standby?
It is not 0284, not 0356 those I have tried

As i know this part is a "internal" thing cause here SimConnect is problematic.
I read something about that in PMDG 737 NGXu for P3D V4,x now including this part..... But i can not garantee. Not be able to test this without owning P3D

So... Maby a advanced User can give you more information. From my point i think this element is not possible in FSX... "maby" possible in P3D with NGXu and pretty sure possible with new FS2020 Version in the future.
Good Luck !

Good day

The problem is now solved very easy.
As long as you use 034C to display the active ADF frequency, there is no need to have the standby frequency since the PMDG event ID to trigger the frequency changes on the active frequency.

With that said there should be no problems using the offset given in the B737-800 SDK kit, in this case;

Display output should be set to:
034C, Int,2 Bytes, BCD mode

This will give the active ADF reading on the 7 segment display.

Then use the Event ID;
For inner selector use 70454
For middle selector use 70455
For outer selector use 70456

One problem though.
Before you will see anything happen you need to save the settings in P3D/FSUIPC, save the settings in Mobiflight. Shut down P3d and Mobiflight and restart it, then it will work.
It did not work for me the first time I set it and I wondered why a long time until I gave it up and continued the next day and all of a sudden everything works without any problems.

Happy flying
